Computer scientists have developed a technique to speed up program debugging by automatically 'chipping' the software into smaller pieces so that bugs can be isolated more easily. The "Chipper" tools ...

This paper describes an approach to the debugging of student Prolog programs in a Prolog Intelligent Tutoring System (PITS) that detects errors in them and proposes the corrections necessary to fix ...

Assertive debugging is a new way to make embedded systems ensure their own health by having your code monitor itself. Debugging is an art that needs much further study .... The most effective ...

Trace has come, gone, and then come back into in-circuit-emulators. Trace in embedded software debug tools was a mainstay in the 1980s. It almost disappeared by the end of the 1990s and has been ...

Originally published in the November 1988 Embedded Systems Programming magazine. Correction is the final step of any debugging exercise. Sometimes bug eradication is straightforward; sometimes a bug ...
